Just figured I'd throw this out there to any other SMNs on Shiva. I'm currently on Trial 813: 200 Sheep kills with Garuda. I have 70 left on that trial, and will be finishing that tonight. If you're on the next trial, and would like to team up, shoot me a /tell in game.
Also, I will be working on the Ramuh perpetuation staff next, and plan on hitting the other elemental perpetuation staves after(for the sake of completion).
